The Darbandikhan Dam on the Diyala River, located in the northern Sulaymaniyah Governorate of Iraq, suffered some damage from the quake, the head of Iraq’s Water Resource Management, Hassan Janani, told reporters. Rocks fell on the structure while some houses next to the dam collapsed, according to the initial assessment. Janani called on those living downstream from the dam to “take caution, and stay away” from the dam.
